MDS has been using computer software to engrave beautiful music notation since 1992. We started with Finale, then Sibelius when it was launched one year later in 1993. In 2016 we moved all our engraving to Dorico. We can also create excellent Gregorian chant notation.
MDS will happily engrave anything from a single-leaf piano piece to a full-size hymnal. We are not limited to just the musical notation, being equally skilled in InDesign and Photoshop, so we are able to create entire publications.
MDS has engraved almost all the music that is available for sale on this site. Our work for other publishers includes:
- Keyboards in Context (in Music Technology in Action), BECTa, 1998
- Psalm Songs, volumes 1-3 (with David Ogden, Cassell, 1998)
- Baptised With Fire(with Paul Wellicome, Society of St Gregory, 2000)
